On June 14, 2022, Idaho Power Company (“Company”) filed an Application with the
Commission requesting approval of the Second Amendment to its Energy Sales Agreement
(“ESA”) with American Falls Solar, LLC (“Seller”) who sells energy generated by the Seller’s 20
megawatt solar photovoltaic project (“Facility”) located in Power County, Idaho. The Facility is a

not otherwise change any obligations of the Parties set forth in the ESA.
